I loved it. I dont have words to describe how incredible this books is. From the characters, to the suspense everything is worth reading.

Pippa is a wonderful character and Ravi is the book bf everyone wants, the mystery keeps you on your tippy toes until the end and at one point everyone is a suspect, it is crazy how easy and fast pace the book is. It was beautiful and now i am starting the 2nd one cause i hace to know what happens next to these two characters that stole my heart.

As always, i want to thank BookTasters, and the author, Craig T. Feith for giving me the opportunity to read this book in exchange of an honest review.

For this month i decided to read some children's books because I work with 3/4 year olds, and I wanted to have some books I could read them in English that were easy and interesting to read; and this book definitely was.

In this book, the narrator explains how a dog is acting like a cat and how at the end the cat starts acting like a dog which gives a fun turn of events at the end.

The book is full of colour, and easy lines to read that in fact rhyme which helps with the remembering of the book for kids.

I love how at the end there is a page for kids to paint in and how in every page there is an element hidden for kids to find because that helps them with the attention and focus.

I really liked it and i really recommend it for kids between 2-4 years that are not english and the parents want to teach them english since they are little because this book will be very useful, in my complete opinion.

I had very high hopes after listening marvelous things and it was a fun easy cute read but nothing crazy. I did enjoy the movie and romcom references.

Wes is so cute i love him and i kinda found the main character a bit annoying but maybe it was just me, like a bit pick me idk...

This book was crazy. I could feel as nervous and as scared as the main character. I was not expecting who the murderer was and when i say i read this book in two days im not joking. The short chapters help a lot with the pacing
